    Hello Nilesh,
    The answer will depend on a number of factors such as where you want to study, what are the reasons for the gap, do you meet the admission requirements, etc. 7 years is a huge gap and very strong reasons must be provided, its all on how you persuade them. SAT can help, in fact, it will be good if you do really well in SAT. This will show that you are still into academics. However, it will be wise to first get in touch with some universities and share your profile with them, admission requirements vary from campus to campus. IELTS or TOEFL will be required, extracurricular activities will be necessary too.

Princeton does not have a minimum requirement for SAT. However, a score in the range of 1500-1580 should be enough, per an unofficial source. It also considers academics, curiosity, and leadership potential of a student.

Other requirements include LORs, SOPs, Essays and transcripts of past education.  Students have to submit their applications in advance to allow enough time for processing of documents.
